This is the second or third time I have entirely missed the naming discussion.
Why?
Not all contributors slavishly read every word on fedora-devel-list.
Next time, PLEASE, a cross-project announcement is in order. Otherwise
you disenfranchise every project that does not have f-devel-l as their
primary project list.
Previously it was suggested that the people who make the distribution
should be involved in the naming, that is why it is not on e.g.
fedora-list. These days, I can't see how we can imagine making a distro
without all of the other subprojects. Why should we name the distro
without them?

Remember the rules:
1) <NewName> must have some link to Sulphur
More specifically, the link should be
Sulphur is a <blank> and
<NewName> is a <blank>
Where <blank> is the same for both
2) The link between <NewName> and Sulphur cannot be the same as between
Werewolf and Sulphur. That link was "things that react badly with
silver".
I will be collecting suggestions for 1 week, so the cutoff for names is:
May 29, 2008
Suggestions will be run through the legal queue and an election will
happen for Fedora contributors to pick the next Fedora name.
